6th Circuit rules that delivery drivers on minimum wage must fully recoup costs for using personal v
In a significant ruling on March 12, the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decided in Parker v. Battle Creek Pizza, Inc. that if an employer mandates a minimum-wage employee to use their own vehicle for work, such as delivery driving, they must fully compensate the employee for the associated costs. This decision emerged from lawsuits filed by pizza delivery drivers in Michigan and Ohio, challenging how their employers reimbursed them for vehicle-related expenses including gas, maintenance, and depreciation. The court found that both the federal district court in Michigan, which suggested reimbursement at the IRS mileage rate, and the Ohio court, which accepted the employers’ “reasonable approximation” of expenses, had not applied the correct standards. Consequently, the 6th Circuit vacated these decisions and called for reconsideration of the reimbursement approach.
